Across the north and west of the UK this is set at 25C. In Greater London and the Home Counties, this rises to a whopping 28C. Forecasters say hot air will be drawn up from the south due to the interaction between high pressure drifting across southern Britain and an area of low pressure. England and Wales will enjoy the best of the sunshine, although a few scattered thunderstorms are possible. Meanwhile, Northern Ireland and Scotland can expect outbreaks of rain at times, especially on Monday. After a warm weekend, temperatures will climb steadily from Monday, with much of England and Wales reaching the mid-to-high twenties and some Home Counties locations topping 30C.
